Evidence of racial bias obvious

Orr's question was: "What is it about this hispanic-on-black incident that trumps the vast majority of other black murders and crimes committed by blacks?" First, the word "incident" speaks volumes about your/society's views of persons with the audacity to be born black.

It was not an incident; it was a murder.

Secondly, when a black person commits a crime, that person is usually placed in the custody of law enforcement immediately, or as soon as possible. He or she stays in jail while the authorities determine if it was an accident, murder, manslaughter, or anything in between. They are paraded before the media in their orange jumpsuits while being asked inane questions.

A police officer was killed a month ago on I-55, and I have yet to see the face or name of the person who killed him. I have heard no contentions from his widow or family either. So the perpetrator was of what race, creed or color? We know for sure black is off the table.

It saddens me to hear of crimes committed against anyone by anyone, but racial biases, racial inequalities, racial profilings, racial partialities sadden me further. The death knell is that it will never change.
